What types of properties would safely yield such a return ?  

There are thousands of Puerto Rican’s flooding into Florida looking for a safe place to live.

The clays in this area are highly expansive, and most older houses didn't use proper backfill techniques behind the wall when the foundation was constructed.

Everyone has the right to live in a safe, healthy, and affordable home.

Google small taxpayer safe harbor nolo...because I believe you can now as of 2014, deduct improvements in the year done.

The goal was to get to roughly $1.5M and then retire, since all of the math says that we could safely withdraw (the SWR) 4% of our investment pot every year ($60k a year) and be able to sustain that indefinitely. 

I choose to live a very frugal lifestyle, in what I consider a middle class neighborhood, but very safe low crime neighborhood. 

As long as you have good storm windows on the outside you might be okay until you have safed up some money.

Doing some research, but seems like Simpli Safe or something along that line would be a worthwhile investment.

I have lived in this part of town for 2 years and it is very safe and close to a public pool and a really nice public park on the river.
